<h2>
Bombino- <em>Nomad</em></h2>
<p>Omara &ldquo;Bombino&rdquo; Moctar comes from a Tuareg encampment in Agadez, Niger, though he&rsquo;s been very far from home recently. The guitarist impressed the very impressive Grammy Award-winning Dan Auerbach enough to have him produce this cool new album.</p>
<h2>
Daughter- &ldquo;Still&rdquo;</h2>
<p>Daughter was originally the solo project of the London-based songwriter Elena Tonra. She expanded to a trio and obviously the switch has been successful; this lead single from the debut LP is beautiful.</p>
<h2>
Meat Puppets- <em>Rat Farm</em></h2>
<p>This new album marks both more than 30 years of work as a band and a shift in musical direction for the Meat Puppets. Here the alternative rockers move to more of a folk sound and we think that it works pretty well.</p>
<h2>
The Olms- <em>The Olms</em></h2>
<p>The Olms are the new project from long time solo musician Pete Yorn and visual artist/musician JD King. This album has a very nice, beachy pop feel to it. Basically, it sounds like a great way to start Summer.</p>
<h2>
Southside Johnny &amp; The Poor Fools- <em>Songs From the Barn</em></h2>
<p>Johnny is a legend, both in the New Jersey rock scene and WFUV&rsquo;s history. This new album with his side project The Poor Fools certainly lives up to the classics he&rsquo;s made with The Asbury Jukes.</p>
